COMPOSER NOTES: The lyrics from this holiday favorite are now wrapped inside a new harmonic box and surrounded by a silky-smooth, melodic ribbon. While Noel Regney originally penned these classic words in 1962, Matt found a way to regift them musically 50 years later by thinking “outside of the box.” Once opened, Heidi Enders’ stirring vocals beautifully lift the song “high above the tree, with a voice as big as the sea."
Vocal Ensemble
Musical prayer for peace inspired by Fred Kaan's lyrics
from the hymn tune "Cwm Rhondda."
